Because the percentage of blacks receiving gov’t handouts is not any where near 98% which is what Zero received in 2008.

I think that figure is around 25 to 30% receiving handouts.
American blacks as a whole have higher incomes per capita
than most countries in the world. So why do the 70 to 75% of blacks having decent jobs or business incomes have this knee jerk faith in democrats IDK.

That is just food stamps isn’t it?

“By age 20, 89.9 percent of African American children will have used food stamps.”

There is also public housing, student loans via affirmative action, and other programs which set up a culture within the community even for those who do not take advantage of it. I mean if you have a group within a community (25-30%) hostile to the GOP due to this, they can quickly influence others, particularly if many of the others have friends or family members who have also taken advantage of these various programs. That’s what I suspect.

What do you think is the reason?
